CPU Vs Question X2 5000 Or Dual Xeon 2.8ghz
Mar 2, 2008cpu/server question.
will a server with following specs :
Dual Xeon 2.8 Ghz 2 gb ram outperform a AMD x2 5000 with 2 Gb ram for apache processes only say for web proxies only.
Or will a Intel Xeon 3065 2.33GHz Conroe with 2 gig ram outperform both of them.
I need to know as my own proxies are getting lots of hits in range for 1k to 2k at times, and also in return good ads payout rate, so upgrade is the best option i see right now to keep speeds optimum.

Xeon 3220 Vs Xeon 5410
Apr 13, 2008Softlayer is pricing these both the same, and I've been a big fan of the
x3220 for a long time now. I haven't been able to fine ANY reasonably priced servers that can out perform the x3220 in computational ability.
That said, does anyone have any figures that would suggest the 5410 is better?
Single Processor Quad Core Xeon 5410 - 2.33GHz (Harpertown) - 1 x 12MB cache
vs
Single Processor Quad Core Xeon 3220 - 2.40GHz (Kentsfield) - 2 x 4MB cache
Clearly the cache is bigger, but for me, it's about speed and computation.
I can't find any references to the x5410 in the VPS vs Dedicated thhread.

QC Xeon X3220 Vs QC Xeon 5320 - Which Is Better? Dell Upgraded Mine To 5320
Nov 18, 2007I just ordered a dell server a few days ago and have noticed in addition to a free harddrive upgrade I now have an upgraded processor for the same price.
PE860 Quad-Core Xeon X3220 2.4GHz/2x4MB 1066FSB (105W)
Free Processor Upgrade to QC Xeon 5320
The question for me is which is better? The previous processor was the low energy 105W one which suited me fine as I'm co-locating this to a DC where they are very strict on power consumption.
Is this one going to provide a noticable performance increase over the first? Is it a major power hog?
What Makes A Xeon A Xeon?
Jun 2, 2008There's something I've always wondered, what makes a Xeon a Xeon?
For instance, what is the difference between a Core 2 Quad Q9300 and a Quad-Core Xeon E5420. Both are quad core, have a 1333MHz FSB, run at 2.5GHz, have SSE4.1, any all the specs seem identical.
Only difference I see is the Xeon has 12MB cache compared to the Q9300's 6MB.
But generally speaking, what makes a Xeon such much better for a server environment than a Core 2 processor.

Jul 20, 2009According to the documentation, Hyper-V VMs cannot boot from SCSI drives and requires an IDE drive for each virtualization. I'm new to Windows (Server 2008) and Hyper-V and planning out some hardware.
Does anyone know if it is possible to:
Set up the the server with 2 SATA Drives (Raid 1), along with 8 x Ultra320 SCSI Drives (Raid 5 or 6).
Load the OS and set up all Virtual slices on the SATA drives, so that that virtual boot sectors are on the IDE drives, but the main bulk of the clients allotted space on the SCSIs? Is there issue with that and if so, how do you manage that?

Dec 28, 2007I currently have a Dell Poweredge 2650 from a few years back, it is running...
2x Xeon 2.4ghz 512K
3GB DDR266 RAM
1x73GB SCSI
Back in the day this system cost $2000, now it's not worth close to that.
So my plans were to dump this bad boy as an SQL server, seeing it has the SCSI backplane and 3GB of RAM, and SQL usually doesn't need as much CPU as a web server.
Now my question, would it be better to use this server or would it be better to build a cheap Core 2 Duo with a RAID0 array with a few SATA drives?
Before you start going off on RAID0, it doesn't matter to me because I am using clustering/failover so data will not be lost and no downtime will be received if the array fails.
Basically what I want to know, is it worth it to keep this server and build upon it or would it be better to sell this server and look into spending an extra few hundred to build a new system with SATA RAID.
I'm going by price/performance rather than reliability as I am using failover to let you know once again .

SCSI, SAS Vs SATA II Reliability
Apr 11, 2008is it really worth the money nowadays to put in SCSI or SAS instead of SATAII (single disk, non-raid here), IF reliability is the only concern (i.e. NOT i/o performance) during the usual 3 year life time of a server?
Actually, I was pretty amazed by the sata reliability, in the past 3 years the only hdd failure was two sata on a mismatched mobo, which didn't support SATAII (a lot of read/write error, eventually died). Although we have 0% scsi and sas failure.

Database Server - SCSI/Raptor
Jan 29, 2008I'm about to purchase a 2nd server to use as a database server. I've been quoted for 2 x SATA II 320GB hdd's in RAID 1 (the same of which I currently use on my single server), but searching around it appears SCSI is the norm for db servers. The problem is, my host does not offer these as a standard/upgrade option and they would need to be specially ordered (along with RAID card), which is expensive.
The fastest disks they offer are 150GB SATA 10K Raptors. My question is, would these be sufficient (compared to SCSI) and do they perform noticeably better than the standard SATA II disks?
Quoted database server specs:
Server = 1 x Dual Core Intel Woodcrest 5130
Memory = 4G RAM
Hard Drive 1 = 320G SATA II Hard Drive
Hard Drive 2 = 320G SATA II Hard Drive
Raid Config = RAID 1 (3 Ware Hardware RAID)
Bandwidth = 3000G Multi-Homed Bandwidth
IP Address = 4 IPs
OS = Centos 4.6 32 bit
Service Monitoring = Ping Monitoring with Email Notification
Server Management = Self-Managed
Control Panel = None
